School Holidays at Gua Tempurung

WOW! School holidays again..
A caving trip to Gopeng, Perak..Sneak preview of how big the cave is... IT's the largest limestone cave in Malaysia.. full of beautiful staglatites and stalagmites... each having their own unique formations and names..
Started our adventure about 9.45am.. and it was a true warm up of our legs.. going up and down steps... easily more than 1000 steps.. to the Top of the World...had some fun in the wind tunnel and there was one gigantic stalagmite called the Rocket.. and yes.. it was super HUGE and shaped like one too!
Here, you can see Jason and kids taking pics with a stalagmite... just beside it was one shaped like a "roti canai"... honestly, you have to see it to believe it!..
It was after this that we took the of route trail.. into the wet-river Indiana Jones trail... yikes... it was super cold and super dark ... and yes, rather dangerous... We had to practically, submerge our bodies fully into the water to crawl from one hole to the other, sometimes having to crawl on all fours, slide, squeeze into some Rat hole... oh.. it was frightening for me for some of the stunts.. but the boys were HEROES.. esp Noel.. They were so brave and went through some of it by themselves... We're so proud of them.. We even spotted a poisonous big green spider.. that was feasting itself on the special shaped cockroaches!! and yes.. BATS! plenty of them.. so i heard that we were stepping on all their poo poo's.. which i refuse to even think of.. Outside the Caves, were some lovely scenic views..
Think this is the first and the last we'll ever go there again... heh heh.. at least not for a very long time to come.. Once is more than enough!

Evan's Sports Day

What a day! Our little Baby is now 7 years old and running for the Red Team for Sports Day in the Kelana Jaya Stadium. Boy, the stadium was filled with parents and children of all ages and oh, it was so colourfully decorated with colourful balloons and uniformed children... Opening ceremony was so grand, starting with the school band, scouts, red crescent, girl guides... blah blah... and the march in procession by the participants..a lovely sight to behold...

Here we have Evan, eagerly waiting for his turn to RUN.. and YES!!! VICTORY!!! He won a gold medal!! It meant so much to him and he was so very proud of it that, he slept with the gold medal in his hand... :)
Evan & Noel's School Sports Day!
